A series of organic compounds that can be described by the same general formula /’n reeks organiese verbindings wat dieselfde algemene formule het A series of organic compounds whose successive members differ by a CH2 unit only/ ’n reeks organiese verbindings wat met ‘n CH2 eenheid van mekaar verskil A series of organic compounds having the same functional group./ / ’n reeks organiese verbindings watdieselfde funksionele groep het (2) 3.2. Chloromethane / chloormetaan/chlorometaan Fluoromethane /fluoormetaan/fluorometaan (2) 3.3. Boiling points increase as the mass/size of the molecule increases. OR Boiling points decrease as the mass/size of the molecule decreases / kookpunte neem toe soos die massa/grootte van die molekules toeneem OF kookpunte neem af soos die massa/grootte van die molekules afneem (2) 3.4. As the molecular mass increases, the strength of Van Der Waals forces (IMFs) increases. Hence more energy is needed to overcome the Van Der Waals forces (IMFs). Thus the boiling points increase./ Soos die molekulêre massa toeneem word die Van der Waalskragte sterker. Dus word meer energie benodig om die Van der Waalskragte (IMK) te oorkom, dus neem die kookpunte toe (3) 3.5. Criteria for investigative question/ kriteria Mark Refers to relationship between dependent and independent  variables/ verwys na verhouding tussen die afhanklike en onafhanklike veranderlikes It is a question – not stated as an aim/ is ‘n vraag  For example/ byvoorbeeld: What is the relationship between boiling point and type of organic compound/ functional group/ homologous series? // wat is die verhouding tussen kookpunt en die soort organiese verbinding/funksionele groep/ homoloë reeks?

According to Le Chatelier’s Principle, a decrease in temperature places a stress on the system.  To counteract the stress, the system reacts by favouring the exothermic reaction/ the reaction that releases heat.The forward reaction is favoured / Equilibrium position shifts to the right/Product formation is favoured. Hence the concentration of C (g) increases.  Volgens Le Chatelier se beginsel word ‘n stress op die sisteem geplaas wanneer die temperatuur verlaag word. Die eksotermiese reaksie word dan bevoordeel, d.w.s die voorwaartse reaksie. Dus word meer produk gevorm en konsentrasie C neem toe (4) 6.4 CALCULATIONS USING MOLES: Mark allocation: N N • USING formula n =  / gebruik formule n(A) = NA NA • Using ratio A(g) : B(g) : C(g) = 2 : 3 : 2/ gebruik verhouding A : B : C = 2 : 3 : 2 • Equilibrium n(A) = initial – change Equilibrium n(B) = initial – change  Equilibrium n(C) = initial + change Ewewig n(A) = aanvanklik - verandering Ewewig n(B) = aanvanklik - verandering  Ewewig n(C) = aanvanklik + verandering  • Divide n(A), n(B) & n(C) by 1 dm3 /deel deur 1 dm3 • Correct Kc expression (formulae in [ ])/ korrekte Kc uitdrukking • Substitution of concentrations into Kc expression vervang konsentrasies • Final answer/ finale antwoord : 0,064 OPTION / OPSIE 1 N 2,41× 1023 n(A) = = = 0,4 mol NA 6,02 × 1023 R Ag(g) B(g) C(g) Initial (mole) 2 4 0 aanvanklik Change/ver- -0,4 -0,6 +0,4 ratio andering Equ.
